Photobucket

To do this tutorial you must have some knowledge of PSP and Animation Shop.

This Tag was made using PSPX2 and Animation Shop. This tutorial is also copyrighted by Young at Heart Designs.
Im using the awesome work of Elias Chatzoudis. If you wish to use his work you must have a license to use his work before using his tubes.
To purchase his tubes and receive a license go to HERE.
The awesome kit I used is called "Glamour Girl" by Grunge & Glitter and it can be found HERE.


Supplies:
Template #18 by DBV:HERE
Wordart:HERE
Plug-in->Photoeffex>Scalines
Plug-in->Eye Candy 4000>HSB Noise
Plug-in->Eye Candy 4000->Gradient Glow
Plug-in->Xero>Radiance
Font: Matura MT Script Capitals

I used shadow settings V3,H2, O50, B5, Color Black on ALL elements, layers, text and the tube except for the mask layer.
I also sharpened every element and tube I had to resize to get the quality like the original size.

1 Open new canvas 800x800.
2 Open, copy and paste as a new layer the GG_GlamourGirl_frame3 from the kit.
3 Open, copy and paste as a new layer your choice of paper.
4 Move the newly added paper under the frame layer.
5 Get your eraser tool and erase any of the paper sticking out paste the frame.
6 Open, copy and paste as a new layer your choice of tube.
7 Resize and position where desired.
Use my example for reference.
8 Duplicate your tube twice.
9 Resize and position where desired under the frame layer.
10 Click on the first duplicated layer and go to Effects>Plug-ins>Xero>Radiance.
11 Apply these settings: 128-50-128-255.
12 Apply the same settings to the 2nd duplicated tube.
13 Now click on the paper layer used as the background for the frame.
14 Go to Selections>Select All>Float>Defloat.
15 Click on the 1st duplicated tube and go to Selections>Invert and hit delete on your keyboard.
16 Go to Selections>Select None.
17 Go back to Selections>Select All>Float>Defloat.
18 Click on the 2nd duplicated tube and go to Selections>Invert and hit delete on your keyboard.
19 Go to Selections>Select None.
20 Now merge the duplicated tubes and the paper layer by going to Layers>Merge Down.
21 **ONLY FOLLOW THIS STEP IF YOU ARE NOT DOING THE ANIMATION**
Click on your merged layer and go to Effects>Plug-ins>Photoeffex>Scalines.
22 Apply these settings: 3-3-40-20.
23 Open, copy and paste as new layers any desired elements from the kit.

31 Go to Layers>Merge>Group.
32 Resize the mask layer to the canvas size.
33 Duplicate the mask layer 2 times and then merge them with the original mask layer.
We are doing this to make the mask layer more visible.

42 Add a gradient- glow width 3 and color black.
